Need some help ,bought used Galaxy Note 2 which was working fine then a week later all signal just stopped working,wifi is working and i can tether or bluetooth to other devices but i cant ring out or receive calls,im thinking the phone has been barred/blocked is there anyway i can get it working again..any suggestions pls.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bradmax57:
Sounds like whoever you have bought it from has reported it lost/stolen and got a replacement from the carrier who has blocked the IMEI number I'd contact whoever you bought it from, failing that the Police

Black listed imei and wont work in the country yiu live in. If allfails and cant solve the issue only chance of recovering your losses is sell it to someone abroad as it will be fine in anu country except urs. Some con artist did the same to me years ago I ended up giving rhe phone to my nro who lives abroad
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] artnada:
Get in touch with seller and tell them if they fail to refund ALL monies paid within 7 days you WILL go to the Police. Call their bluff and be prepared to do it.

Don't be friends with them, be stern and make sure you get the message across.

The seller is an ahole, simple as that. They knew exactly what they were doing to you.

Keep us up to date. Good luck.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Stat1c_V01D:
Hello, developers and users.

I want to write an extension that parses Last.FM friends feed and the tracks they loved recently. I haven't found one on the Internet so I decided to write one myself. I took the Sony's EDK SnsSampleExtension example for Timescape to start from.

I hope to find the answer to a very interesting issue I've found. So there's SNSDataProvider - a class that extends Android's ContentProvider in order to customize data fetching. In the example SQLite DB is used. And calling ContextResolver's insert(), query(), update() or delete() methods should (or at least I expect it to) result in calling SNSDataProvider's methods relatively. BUT despite overrided insert() and query() are called ok delete() is NOT called at all! I've added a line at the beginning of SNSDataProvider.delete() method:

Log.d("Database", "Delete URI: " + uri.toString());

and similar lines in insert() and query() methods. The log is in the attachement. Note: there must be the "Delete URI: ..." note in logs just before "Logout done" as the first Log note should be caused by database.cleanup(); line (that calls mCr.delete() in tis turn) in SNSSampleService.logout(), but it doesn't!

The main problem is that (old) events in the database can't be deleted so every time I login or logout or add more events to DB wthout being able to delete old ones I run into exception that is caused by overfilled DB.

Just in case: I got Sony Xperia S with Android 4.0.4 . Let me know if some more info needed.

I do hope I can use some help of experienced devs here.

Cheers.

We're writing to let you know that this listing for an item you won or bid on is no longer available:

221180672235 - NEW! Android 4.1 OS TV box mini pc DDR3 1G 8G+Air Fly Mouse

We understand this may be disappointing, but occasionally we need to remove listings. In some cases, the item itself is fine, but was listed in a way that didn't follow eBay's guidelines.

Here's what you can do next:

-- If you already paid, received your item, and you're satisfied, please disregard this notice.

-- If you won the item but haven't paid, don't pay. Since eBay removed the listing, you're no longer obligated to go through with the transaction.

-- If you already paid for this item through eBay, and it's past the estimated delivery time, you can open a case in our Resolution Center. Click the link below, and select the "I haven't received it yet" option. This will guide you through the process of opening a case.

http://resolutioncenter.ebay.com

If the seller offers you the item outside of eBay, we strongly discourage you from accepting the offer. These types of transactions are extremely risky and aren't covered by eBay buyer protection programs.

If you didn't pay through eBay or PayPal, and:

-- You paid by Western Union or MoneyGram, contact the company directly (Western Union 800-325-6000 or MoneyGram 800-926-9400).

-- You paid by check, contact your bank to stop payment.

[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azapa:
Hey there. New/old user here back with new phone. I have some doubts.

I have unlocked bootloader, rooted and installed CWM and made a backup of my stock system.

I now want to remove all the Claro crap that came with my phone. I would like a little guidance:

1.	I don’t want to change and radio rom - my cell is GSM + CDMA and I fear a ROM from a pure GSM (Euro) may disable the CDMA?

2.	I would like to put in the simplest , cleanest, fastest ROM possible, but at the same time with the newest stable kernel

3.	I really don’t know how to proceed. Do I need something like “Stock 81.5.40002.XT890.Retail.en.EU.zip” I have the androik sdk installed and know how to flash using the fastboot.exe, but was wondering *what* to flash in this case? Recovery? Book? Kernel? System? Or is there a simpler way to do what I am trying to like put the “Stock 81.5.40002.XT890.Retail.en.EU.zip” on a SD and enter fastboot on phone? Then what?

4. Will OTA still work after?

Thanks for the guidance!
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sspitfire:
Hey!

I've been wondering if i should start using the stock nightly builds over get.cm,

FXP hasn't been giving out detailed logs for the xperia arc, so i guess there are no fixes done to it? cause all i see are *latest cm 9.1/10

So do older fixes gets pushed to newer FXP CM builds or are they already fixed on the official cyanogen builds?
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Someguyfromhell:
FXP is the team, who develops CM for Xperia devices.

So, what you see on the CM website, is made by FXP team.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] msc3169:
You should know i guess that fxp team are the official cyanogen maintainers for xperia devices so u wudnt notice much difference in these ROMs. Regarding the nightlies, every nightly has newer fixes/patches and older fixes are naturally included as well..
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sspitfire:
Based on my post, you ahould know that i have understood all of that prior to this post. Please read my post and not just the topic. FXP builds haven't been pushing log fixes for the arc recently but a rebranded fw off stock cm. Get.cm has newer nightly builds buf fxp only uses a week or even later builds for their newer releases.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dahakske:
So i'm still confused... Is the rom of fxp the same as the nightly builds, or the same people working on those roms?

Now I'm using the nightly build, I tried it because at first i got issues with the fxp build, issues were: keyboard fc's and no wifi, but with nightly I reflashed wifi modules(lupus) after installing rom and that does seem to work, so perhaps also would work on fxp but don't know because didn't try yet. Keyboard issue persists, so i flashed xperia V keyboard which I like better anyway(swype).

I come from ultimate HD but i like cm10 more, even though battery is better on uhd. What i like is lockscreen, sms popup and ant+, etc... I don't like camera app and no out of the box digital clock widget :) I know some of these can just be modded and flashed over except ant+ whick is key to me because i bought a heartrate monitor.

Sorry I made it a cm10 vs uhd thread :)
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jasonwsc:
Fxp is the team. CM are stable builds while nightly are more unstable with untested fixes and bugs.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mastermates:
Hello, my name is Calin and this is my first post on this forum. Even though I have been reading this forum since I bought my galaxy s3 (don't think at me as a regular user, I only visit this forum when I have a problem, since my device is not rooted many of the things aren't useful for me around here).

As a regular user as I am, I didn't have to post a new thread to find a solution to my problem, but this time it seems that I just have to. Before I proceed I just have to say that it drives me crazy, the fact that I don't know what the problem MIGHT (not is) be. I am clueless.

In the past 1-2 weeks I haven't installed any new app, from google play or from internet (.apk, yes I did this with few of the apps). Even though I have installed apps with an .apk installer (from the market) I have always scanned the file on my pc, and then after I installed it, AVG scanned it on the phone too.

Today, I was browsing the internet (9gag to be more specific), one of my daily/hourly routine. If it matters, I was in the bank and I had a strong network signal (I wasn't using wi-fi). Suddenly, after a few minutes of browsing my phone didn't recognize my sim and asked for a reboot. I clicked on continue (to reboot). After it rebooted (note that I had a lock screen numeric password: 3258) my lock screen password changed from a numeric one to a letter based one, which, ofcourse, I have no idea which is. I have tried all the passwords that came into my mind, I thought it may have sync with some of my google accounts. It didn't. I have tried to enter 3258 password (I can enter numbers too). It didn't work.

Even if it is locked, it's just some kind of screen lock because I can see apps running on background (like 3g watch dog) and I can receive calls (can answer them but I can't call back) and messages (can't read them). The only things that I can do with my phone right now are: Switch Airplane Mode: On and Off, activate or deactivate mobile data, switch from silent to vibrate or sound and ofcourse, reboot and turn off my phone.

I have tried every possible thing I could've tried to make this work, like removing the sim. It all seems to be a software problem.

Note that I don't wanna root my device in order to solve this. Thank you.

hi guys,

i recently upated my tipo single to fxp203.After facing some random lags, i have decided to go back to my ics stock rom.I tried using the fashtool to restore the ftf file but even after connecting my phone in flashmode, it reboots itsef whie flashtool is preparing fies for flashing.Is there anything extra which i need to do to restore the stock rom?help please
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] gavster26:
You need to wait untill preparing has finished then you'll see the prompt to connect your phone in flash mode then flashing will start.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] mdzareef:
i faced the same problem

here what i have done

flash bot image of FXP once again

Then remove the cable

Edit :- dnt press power button after removing cable

Hold (-) vol key and insert the cable

Then flash firmware TFT

here firmware link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2001567
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Steam.:
That's because you didn't put the phone in MSC mode.connect your cable to the phone while it's booted, and slide the drawer, it should ask you for connection options, choose MSC, or because you have CM, PTP aka Camera.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Repoman013:
Hi all,

I recently needed my 8GB sdcard to install windows on a laptop with a broken dvd drive.

First I dragged all the data from the sdcard over to a new folder on my iMac.

After repartitioning and formatting the drive so it would be bootable I used it to instal windows on the laptop.

All was done so I erased all data again on the sdcard and repartitioned it again to FAT with mac's Disk Utility.

Dragged all the data from the iMac back to the sdcard but after booting the phone all apps that were on the sdcard are no longer able to start.

I searched the interweb and these forums and came across a few possible solutions but i'm not sure if those are the right ones

Does anybody have a solution to this problem so I can run these apps again without losing data?

Thanks in advance..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmic Blue:
try reformating the sdcard with the phone format in recovery then connect to your mac and recopy the data back to the sdcard.

The phone does not like certain types of partitioning from other computers, using the phone own format guarantees that phone will recognize the sdcard.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] JGS_:
Based on: I9305XXBMA3_I9305NEEBMA1_I9305XXBLL5 (Nordic unbranded)

Tested in Belgium :)

The goal was to hardly make any changes at all, except rooting the stock firmware images. Advantages:

(Obviously) The

flash counter will NOT be increased

and the phone will keep showing status as official.

No fiddling with custom kernels and god knows which kind of tweaks that might break compatibility or future upgrades

Odin flashable, so no need for custom recovery methods like CWM etc

Stock behavior (no wipe)

There are 3 available images:

I9305XXBMA3_I9305NEEBMA1_I9305XXBLL5_ROOTED.zip

GT-I9305 (4.1.2 - Nordic, Unbranded)

PDA: XXBMA3

CSC: NEEBMA1

PHONE: XXBLL5

Installed:

- SuperSU 0.99

- Busybox 1.20.2

- Nano text editor

... for the rest it's 100% stock rom and flashable with odin. (Containing modem, cache, hidden, ...)​

I9305XXBMA3_I9305NEEBMA1_I9305XXBLL5_ROOT_DEODEX_ZIPALIGN.zip

Same as previous, except it has also been deodexed and zip-aligned...

​

I9305XXBMA6_I9305NEEBMA1_I9305XXBLL5_ROOT_DEODEX_ZIPALIGN.zip

New XXBMA6 version. This is actually a combination of the new XXBMA6 and the old XXBMA3 rooted deodexed zipaligned unbranded package (wow so many adjectives:p). So it gives the best of both worlds: newest updated software, still unbranded CSC etc.

​

Download

Note: If you're new to Android and don't know which one to download, simply pick one of both, both will do fine for starters that want root ;)

[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] ultyrunner:
I've got a Hong Kong GT-i9305 that's unlocked. I've left it mostly stock, but it's rooted with CWM installed. I'd like to keep my phone stock but have a couple questions, particularly since I live in Canada and my stock firmware has a Hong Kong localised CSC.

I know the PDAs on the SGS3s tend to be the same with the XX designation, but am wondering what kind of apps and settings the CSC in this firmware will install? I can input my own APN tweaks and it mostly gets set automatically by the SIM. I can't get anything localised for N America so hoping to find a firmware that's closer than a Hong Kong CSC.

Also, our LTE 4G uses mostly different frequencies than European LTE, so I can only use 2600 frequency. I'm mostly on H+/3G and that's fine since it was the 2gigs of RAM and quad-core that I wanted this phone for. Will the modem be significantly different on this than my current firmware?

Finally, I have ODIN Mobile installed on my phone. Will this firmware install easily that way or do I need to use desktop ODIN?

Thanks for any feedback you can give me.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] JGS_:
This should flash a generic European CSC AFAIK. To be honest I'm not sure what would be best in your case. Probably someone with more experience on the forum should be able to explain the exact possible differences.

Only thing I do know is that is certainly should support these bands: LTE 800/1800/2600 MHz since that is in the (Belgian) specs from the firmware on Samsung's website. Probably even more, but not sure about that...

I think I've seen people discussing about it in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1896165 but that is a long long thread :)
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] ultyrunner:
Thanks. I figure this would be a pretty good option but am still investigating options. Most CDN carriers run LTE on 700/1700/2600 so very rarely do you get LTE on this phone, but 90% of the time I'm on WiFi and so far H+/3G has been pretty fast on this phone.

The EVR (I9305TADEVR) does only provide:

- 2G/3G/4G/ (autoconnect)

- 3G only

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] JGS_:
There are 4 modes available in my case (Nordic unbranded):

LTE/GSM/WCDMA (Auto) = 2G/3G/4G/ (autoconnect)

GSM/WCDMA (Auto) = 2G/3G (autoconnect)

GSM Only = 2G only

WCDMA Only = 3G only

All things equal, which version is better for battery life? Odex or deodex?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] JGS_:
I don't think it matters at all and if it would matter, the difference would be very marginal. The deodex/zipalign version should use less memory in theory (because of the zipaligning), but I guess it's also a marginal difference :)
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] ultyrunner:
Thanks for this, quick question. I'm planning to flash this release via Mobile ODIN. Wondering whether it would be better to get the stock Sammy firmware and inject Everroot settings into it, or flash the deodex/zip-align version you've kindly posted here and leave the Mobile ODIN Everroot options unchecked? I guess my real question is will Mobile ODIN have any problem with yours since they've been modified. Alternatively, I can use my son's laptop and flash yours through desktop Odin, but if I can just do it on my phone, I'd rather. I've already backed myself up as fully as possible, with CWM, Titanium and EFS partition done.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] Madala_ZA:
Will Jkay mod work with this rom? Also, will Kies work?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] JGS_:
If you are already rooted atm and you do have mobile odin pro installed, I suppose you could simple use the stock firmware and keep it rooted thanks to Everroot. I did not test it, but I'm pretty confident the Everroot from mobileodin is perfectly compatible with this rooted firmware I posted (Mobile odin just injects Superuser.apk and su at the same places they are already put in the pre rooted firmware). So if you want the deodexing and zipaligning you could use the posted firmware.

However if you also have CWM installed, this package normally removes it (also if you flash the stock firmware btw, no idea how Mobile odin handles this since I never tested it)

Kies will definitely work completely. Only thing you should not do is applying new updates using Kies, otherwise the root will be removed with firmware upgrade.

About Jkay, no idea, but if it works on the original stock rom, it should certainly work on this pre-rooted one too.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Android Deve] ultyrunner:
Thanks for the reply. I'm downloading (very slowly) the stock Nordic unbranded firmware from SamMobile via Hotfile and I've also got yours. Now just to decide which to use, but I will definitely use Mobile ODIN for ease. With the 2gb of RAM I'm not really seeing the need for a custom optimized ROM and I'm finding stock pretty snappy. I know either method will lose me CWM, but since I'll be rooted, flashing it back if I want or need it is simple. Interestingly, I used triangle away and got the counter back, but I still get the little red tick in the upper left when booting into recovery, so it would appear I wouldn't have my warranty intact anyway.
